So, I've put this label on the career I want to do and have called it "writing". What an ambiguous word. Aren't we all, in a sense, writers? Aren't people who can write down 20 items on a grocery list "writers"? Can't you just slap together a couple of sentences and call it a story? How is what I want to do different from these mundane, everyday ( Read more... )

The wheels in my head have been spinning lately and I finally feel like I'm getting on track. My last post was, well, quite existential (read: whiney) and I've found a newfound passion for life. Maybe it's just that for the first time in my life, I finally have direction. I think the reason I used to be so unsatisfied was because I wanted ( Read more... )

I have a theory. This theory is not based on scientific facts thoroughly researched and developed. This theory is based on what I have observed through simple human interaction.

I don't take for granted that I have great friends, but I want one person who can finish my sentences. Someone I can hang out with all day every day and ( Read more... )

The last couple of days have been sort of a blur. I went to Mills today. There were hella people. It was Emi, Gavi, Allen and this new kid Daniel. We're all basically crazy. Daniel was in juvi. Allen starves himself. Emi is a cutter. Gavi and I are suicidal. We all completely give the staff a hard time and laugh about it during breaks. We're such ( Read more... )

I need an outlet. The past week has probably been one of the best weeks of my life. So, what happened was, Nick and Bill decided to go camping for a week, then me, Theresa, Jessica, and Marco were going to follow them. They ended up not staying in Yosemite because it was too goddam hot. We met them up in Santa Cruz last Friday. We stayed in Santa ( Read more... )

So today was a good day. I woke up, had lunch with my madre. Bought my 80 color eyeshadow pallet [ahhh!] and then picked up Casey. We drove to Haight street and found parking [wow!] and then we shopped. I bought a new purse, and some earrings. And a pin. He bought two pairs of sunglasses. He is sooo obsessed with sunglasses. I don't get it. I ( Read more... )
